Poulter loses his shine

“Always believe in your soul
You’ve got the power to know
You’re indestructable
Always believe in, because you are
Gold”
So sang Spandau Ballet in the 80s, but unfortunately these iconic lyrics fell on deaf ears At the Johnny Walker Classic. Ian Poulter Stepped out in a Gold lame shirt in Gurgaon, India but what followed was carnage for the flamboyant Englishman. He slumped to three double-bogeys in four holes, before battling back to four-over 76 - 9 shots of the lead
To make matters worse for Poulter the overnight tournament leader is Indian journeyman, Shamim Khan, after producing a five-under-par 67 to share the first-round lead. Khan has a world ranking of 1377.
Poulter’s playing partner, Vijay Singh was moved to say that he should worry,” less about his clothes and more about his game.”…aint that the truth? The big Fijian added that, “Maybe he should quieten down a little bit and then he will play some better golf.”
If I were Poulter I’d blend in for a while, and keep my head down and my mouth shut - and just play.
